    Greetings, have had mets to the bones since Sept of 1998 and had lung involvement. Lung involvement was cleared up with Chemo (Taxol). So, lungs are now clear and still have bone mets. If you are having bone pain please inquire about getting either Pamidronate or Zometa to help strenghen your bones and help with the pain. Also shown to perhaps **** advancement of the disease. These have worked great for me. The level of bone disease had advanced very little if at all over the last almost 5 and 1/2 years. Do let me know if you wish to chat or email. Best Wishes Lisa
